Glitter green dresses with lurex thread for party season
Our glitter green dress shines because of lurex, metallic thread that runs right through the knit, so there’s no sequin to catch on a coat. We make it in leaf green and in a deep emerald, short or down to mid-calf. With the sparkle built in, the rest of your outfit can stay plain.
Two lurex midis that stop at mid-calf
Got a long dinner ahead, or a seated company party? Pick a midi. Both of ours have long sleeves and a round neck, and the hem ends halfway down the calf. The leaf green one follows your figure and still lets you move. Emerald is darker, and that depth keeps the shimmer calm enough for a restaurant with candles on the table.
We’d wear either with ankle boots on a steady heel, because they cover the leg right where the hem stops and keep the line unbroken. Knee boots do the same job on a snowy night.
Matte tights help too.
Not sure which green is yours? Leaf green is brighter and warmer, emerald cooler and deeper. Both look good with yellow gold, so hoops or a thin bracelet in that metal are an easy match.
A short emerald wrap and a leaf green V-neck
The emerald mini is a wrap. Its front crosses into a deep V, and a belt at the waist lets you decide how snug it sits. Long sleeves balance the short hem, so this glitter green dress won’t look out of place where the dress code is a little stricter. You can even wear it to a daytime party, since lurex shows in daylight as well.
Then there’s the leaf green mini with three-quarter sleeves. It’s cut close to the body and opens at the neck in a V. It’s our pick for a club night or a birthday with dancing. You’ve got bare wrists in it, and one ring there does more than a necklace would, since the fabric already sparkles from shoulder to hem.
In January, either mini fits under a cropped faux fur jacket or a black coat with a straight cut.
Frequently asked questions
Will the shine come off in the wash?
No, because nothing’s glued on. Use cool water and a laundry bag, no bleach, and lay it flat somewhere shady to dry.
What size works in a close-fitting lurex knit?
Take your bust and hip measurements and compare them with the chart, so the fabric lies smooth. We sew these from XS to XL, and XL costs around 10 % more.
Can I wear one in the daytime?
Sure. Throw a blazer over the emerald wrap and add plain ankle boots for a lunchtime party.
Where do I find sparkle with full-length sleeves?
See our long sleeve lurex dresses, or the wider page of sparkly dresses. For more of the jewel tone in velvet and satin, open emerald green styles.
